Chapter 37: Shi Qingfeng

However, this mountain is not chosen randomly, you must know that according to the plan of the underworld, in order to closely integrate the way of the city god and humanity, the lord of humanity needs to worship the earth list and sign the covenant of man and god.

This is the covenant between man and god, which is naturally extraordinary, and the selected mountain will also benefit from it, so as to become a unique place of meditation in Dachen, which can not be sloppy.

However, Lu Yu traveled all over the Dachen Famous Mountain, but still did not find his ideal peak, until a few days ago, he visited this place and heard the rumors of the mountain god lock, so he was interested in going up the mountain.

The mountain god lock mouth is the most amazing legend of Mt. Izumo in recent years, because a hunter was attacked by a fierce beast when he went into the mountain to hunt, but who expected that the fierce beast man could not keep his mouth in his mouth.

Later, another beast broke into the village at the foot of the mountain, but in the end, it was impossible to get down. Some old people said that it was the mountain god of Izumo Mountain who locked the mouths of these fierce beasts to prevent them from harming humans, so that the incense of the Izumo Mountain Temple was more vigorous than before, and I don't know how many times, and even some literati and artists who came to visit wrote stories about this incident and spread it.

However, Lu Yu watched with his own eyes at the beginning, but found that the so-called Izumo Mountain Mountain God had fallen without knowing when, leaving a gold seal representing the identity of the mountain god in his legal domain.

At this time, when I saw the ghost general holding the tiger's mouth and not letting it hurt me, I already knew that the ghost general in front of me was the god of Izumo Mountain that everyone worshipped.

The ghost general looked into the distance and said, "It's not hard work, but I just ask for peace of mind!"

Lu Yu stroked his palms and laughed: "It's a good sentence but ask for peace of mind, if you are interested in telling your story, I am a good listener." ”

Lu Yu looked at the ghost general with a smile, to be honest, he was very curious about this one, and he didn't know what kind of experience made him say such a thing.

The ghost general raised his head and looked at the sky, his expression seemed to have returned to the past, and he was stunned for a long time before he said faintly: "My name is Shi Qingfeng, I am a member of Da Chen's generals, and fighting on the battlefield as a soldier is the whole of my life." ”

"I'm proud to be in the ranks, and I'm always at the forefront of every fight, and even though I get hurt sometimes, I enjoy my life. Until one day, I followed my general to exterminate the bandits. ”

"It was a very quiet night, and we stormed the bandits' camp, but what I saw was not a heinous bandit, but a bunch of civilians who could not afford to pay heavy taxes, and I hesitated for a moment. ”

"The fiercest enemy I've ever seen, and I've crawled out of the pile of dead, but never has I been so frightened for a moment as I was on that day, and there were little children in that crowd, who looked at me with their innocent eyes open, as if to question why I had killed them. My hands trembled terribly, but the general still told us to kill them all, and he needed this merit as a stepping stone to his promotion. ”

"After that I couldn't look at myself anymore, every night I would dream of the children, they would look at me quietly with their eyes open, and every time I would be awakened, and finally I made a decision. ”

"I became a deserter, a shameful deserter, an existence that I used to despise the most. I escaped from the army, all the way north to here, but I didn't expect to die under a landslide, it is ridiculous to say that I crawled out of the pile of dead people several times, the brothers in the army all said that my life is hard, who knew that a sudden landslide will kill me, maybe this is retribution, it is the retribution for killing those innocent people. ”

Lu Yu listened quietly to the ghost general's story, he didn't expect that such a mighty and majestic man would have such a compassionate heart, and it was not easy to maintain his true heart in the midst of killing and temptation.

"And then, how did you think of doing such a thing?"

"When I woke up, I found myself a ghost, and for some reason the so-called soul messenger did not come to me, and I became a lonely ghost wandering around Izumo Mountain. ”

"One day I saw a hunter go into the woods, he was very old, but his youngest daughter was about to get married, and the family was too poor to have a decent dowry, so the hunter, who had long washed his hands, had to go back to his old business, hoping to get a good skin for his daughter to add a dowry, just so that she could live a better life in her mother-in-law's house. ”

"Pity the heart of the world's parents, I followed behind him, watching him crawl in the cold snow for a long time for a piece of skin, shivering all over the body but not daring to make a sound, for fear of scaring away the prey that he had been waiting for, and finally he finally hunted a good snow fox, but when the hungry wolf appeared in front of him, he was desperate, that look reminded me of the women and children who died in my hands, I couldn't help but help him. ”

"There is a first time and a second time for this kind of thing, there will always be endless reasons to convince yourself to do what you want to do, and I am no exception, even if every time I can feel my strength disappearing but my heart is surprisingly stable, maybe that's why the soul seducer didn't come to take me away, let me atone for my sins in this way. ”

Shi Qingfeng slowly talked about his past, not feeling the coldness of his body as a yin soul at all, and the light from his heart was enough to warm people's hearts.

"Only sinful people have to atone for their sins, Shi Qingfeng, what sin do you need to atonement? After all, it's just the uneasiness of a good old man!"

"Maybe you're right, who would have thought that I, a person with blood on my hands, would actually be a so-called good old man!" Shi Qingfeng said with a wry smile as he looked at his ghost hand, which had become a little hideous.

Lu Yu smiled and said: "It's hard to be a good person, and it's even more difficult to be a good person." Therefore, every good man should be respected, and how long are you going to bear this fate?"

"I never thought that as long as I survived in this world for a day, I would hold on for a day!"

This was said very plainly, but it made Lu Yu very moved, not everyone can have such an awareness. So he handed the golden seal he had obtained from the Mountain God Domain to Shi Qingfeng.

"I think if you want to help more people, this thing should be quite suitable for you!"

"This is?" Shi Qingfeng took the golden seal and found that the breath on it was very familiar, this is because although he did not get the god of Izumo Mountain, but he has long been regarded as a mountain god by the villagers, and he has long had a weak connection with this golden seal, if he insists on it for another ten or eight years, it is estimated that he will naturally become the god of Izumo Mountain.

"This is the golden seal of the mountain god of Izumo Mountain, refining it is this towering mountain god, you can also help more people, this road is not easy to walk, have you decided. ”
